Merry Christmas!

Hope everyone has a safe and festive yuletide. Looking forward to seeing the new running gifts we get for the new year. Not sure how many people will make it Sunday morning (we'll be on the road). But let's remember to put a few miles in, between the feasting. We've got a host road races coming up in the new year. Happy holidays everyone.

Kiawah

Well, I was doing fine until mile 17. Must have been something in the gatorade, because no one reported feeling great or clocking a stellar performance. The weather was a bit miserable, but wasn't really the issue (I don't think). Sometimes, it just ain't there. Oh well, they can't all be gems.

The after-race food & beer was great. And it was great seeing the whole running crowd. The whole shuttle parking thing actually worked pretty smoothly, and the on-course support was pretty good. So I guess Kiawah gets a high mark (or at least a passing grade).

Not sure if I'll make it Sunday morning. If I do, it won't be for a long one. How about other folks?

Jet Lag

One week from Kiawah, and I've just come back from San Diego where I've been since Wednesday. Got in a couple of good runs, but I'm not too concerned since I've been pulling the mileage back. Now, I've got to get my clock turned around.

Congrats to Ann, who got fifth overall at a fiercely competitive Reindeer Run. Can't wait to hear from Cami on her half marathon in Palm Beach. Good luck to everyone prepping for Kiawah. I, myself, can't wait.
